[{"type":"text","content":"Ubique Mineral First Assay Results from Diamond Drilling Program on MINKAP Option at Daniel's Harbour Confirm Zinc Intersections Up to 8.8% Zinc Over 4.3 MetresTORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / October 21, 2019 / Ubique Minerals Limited (\"Ubique\")(CSE:UBQ) announces it has received assay results from the first three diamond drill holes at Daniel's Harbour, Newfoundland, which were drilled into targets on the MINKAP option property. These holes were targeted to duplicate intersections by historic holes into three zones of mineralization. All intersected zinc mineralization as previously identified by the historic drilling. Hole UM29 intersected 7.86% zinc over a core length of 8.4 metres: hole UM30 intersected 4.34% zinc over a core length of 3.65 metres and hole UM31 intersected 8.80% zinc over a core length of 4.30 metres.All of the drill holes were vertical holes and intersected approximately true thicknesses of the near flat sedimentary host rock horizons. The first hole - UM29 - was drilled as a twin to historic hole T1386 which was reported to have intersected 18.8 (5.73 metres) feet averaging 8.96% Zinc from a depth of 551 feet. The second hole was drilled close to historic hole T1311 in what is called the Nose Zone. That hole intersected 6.79% Zinc over 21.5 feet (6.55 metres) from a depth of 462.1 feet. The third hole was drilled more than 400 feet east along the Nose Zone and twinned historic hole T1135 which intersected 5.91% Zinc over 16.2 feet (4.94 metres) from a depth of 440.4 feet.

Atlantic Analytical is an ISO 17025 registered laboratory. Appropriate standards and blanks were inserted into the samples sequence for quality control in accordance with Ubique's standard QA/QC protocol which was developed for the drill program in 2018 (see press release dated November 30th, 2018).Each of the recent drill holes was collared within 1 metre of the collars of t...
